Maintenance of the threaded sections on theTTL cable and TTL cable connector

If the threaded sections used to connect the TTL cable to the TTL cable connector are not maintained properly, salt and other seawater residue may adhere the TTL cable and prevent it from being disconnected.

After use in seawater, clean off any salt, sand, or other residue as soon as possible, then dry the equipment thoroughly. Clean the threaded sections with a cotton swab and apply a thin, uniform layer of O-ring silicon grease (provided with this case).

Clean and apply O-ring silicon grease to these sections.
